Iwill, I got my information from Colin and Dale. They had a number of girls in Victoria and Vancouver in the 80's and early 90's.
If you'd been working then you'd know those names. Colin in fact had a girl sign on him. You may even recognize the name Kim? Colin's last name started with a P. My information comes from the time when the girls worked gov't. and had permission to do so after 9:00pm that was a very very long time ago. I know very little about the vic streets now.
I'd have gotten back to this topic much sooner unfortunatley I have no access to this site except at home where I share the computer with a 14yr old. Well...share is n't exactly accurate.
The only information I rely on is those who stood on the corners, not those who controled them. It's like asking a parent what they think their child goes through at school and then asking the child. Two different views, but the child's living it, not the parent.
Since I never had a man, I don't recognize any of their names. As for Kim? most girls used an alias out there and I could have met her under a different name. However I only ever met a handful of high track girls back then. As we played the game by different rules, we did not asocciate. I recently met one of the high track girls, she used to work Gov and Fort. We had arguements back then, now we are very good friends. She ran in that world, so I can ask her if she knew them. I'll get back to ya later.
